The whole costume is very effective. the happy mean between the extremes of fashion has been preserved. and the result shows what may be accomplished by one who Jknows how to dresa. But Queen Mary was the exception the rule was quite the other way. and gave fair cause for eriticis: The author of ‘The Anatomie of Abuses” is justly indignant at the painting of ladies’ faces, which now be- came usual, After some pages of argument he speaks of their hair “which of fore at be curled. frisied and crisped, and, lest it | should fail down, is underpropped with forks, Wires, and I cannot tell what: rather like sfern monsters than chaste Christian matrons. At their hair, thus wreathed and crested, are hanged bugles. ouches, rings. gold. silver, glasses, and such other childish gewgaws.” Bad as all this is declared to be, he expresses his utter horror at the still worse custom of wearing false hair aud dyeing it ‘of what color they list.” The indignation of the wiiter ab- solutely boils over when he speaks uf the great Fuffs worn by the ladies, and “the wrid’s Liquor, I mean starche.” with which they stiffen these “pillars of pride,” and “beyond all this the have a further fetch, namely. thr or four degrees of minor ruffes placed gradatum one beneath «nother, aud all under the maister devil rujte!! ‘h of them leated and crested fuli curiously.

The first entertainment of this character was given by President Washington in May, 1739, in honor of the arrival of Mrs, Washington at New York. then the capital scat of government, im- mediately after his inauguration. The guests were invited with reference to the order of of- ficial precedence. viz: the Vice President rep- resenting the first office of the legislative vrauch, the heads of executive departments, the foreign mimsters, as guests of the nation. two Senators representing the upper and the Speaker the lower body of Congress, The ap- pomtment of a chief justice of the United States was not made until the following Sep- tember, otherwise his place would have been next to the Vice President. ‘Lhe form of invitation used for the state din- ners of the first administration was as follows: She Srfedent ofthe United States 2 sage aaa To Om. on The precedent established by the President » Mrs. Wa. invton over one hundred years ago has been continuously adhered to in all es- scntal features. GEN. JACKSON'S EXPERIENCES. During this long interval the history of offi- cial dining presents an interesting chapter of, the inner social life of administrations. The number and scope of these state dinners during a season have varied to suit the wishes and so- cial tendencies of the President and his house- hold. President Jackson began the cocial part of his presidential career with a system of wholesale official feeding which embraced Senators and Representatives and party friends. ‘Toward the end of his term he grew tired of these generous state and political feasts and finally abandoned all except those of a purel; ceremonial character. The old hero's experi- ences respecting the polite feeding qualities of lady. The remaining guests are seuted alter- nately in the same order according to the uc- cepted degrees of official precedence or rank, but always if practicable with a gentleman as the vis-a-vis of a lady.

From the rim of the box on the outside hung a fall of ecru macreme lace, the very latest novelty of the hour. This wasa dainty and pretty addition to the bed room or sitting room, and, setting on table or floor, was always ready for anything one wished to get rid of, After appreciating the usefulness of such a thing one was led to taking the large office baskets for house use. and by lining with bright colors and tying on ribbons make them seem more attractive in appearance with their change of surroundings. Of course a demand soon created the supply, and baskets of smaller dimeusions and finer weave began to appear, 80 that for years pretty scrap baskets have been in the market, All the time they have been growing more popular, and daintier forms and more delicate decora- ly appear. Oue of the first deco- quin effect of leaf-shaped picces of red flannel, and white figures, applied with sear: ig silk, ‘This, compared parpose, with a big bunch of most natural- looking roses tied on with broad pink ribbons, seems very crude and glaring, It is only by such contrasts that one realizes how much our and eyes trained to appreciate the difference between the crude and refined in even such small things as WASTE BASKETS. The presence at so many summer re- sorts of Indian or gipsy camps, with the at- tendant basket making, has brought tho pretty wares to the notice of thousands of people,who see the weaving, get interested and finally enthusiastic over making a collection of all the pretty forms and_ combinations of color. The delicate tones, soft and yet g: made up with the fragrant sweet grass, are quite fascinating and irresistible to most women.

The former belongs to the province of the steward and the latter is the combined production of the euggestions of the ladies of the household and the upplied genius of the florist. The floral designs have reference to the motive of the | dinner, The bouquets are also composed of | roses to suit the complexions of the ladies to receive them. Light colored roses tied with a satin ribbon are placed at the plates of ladies of brune complexions and dark roses for blondes, more and more interested in her collection last summer, and feeling sure of not being able to house permanently her constantly increasing store, made a satisfactory resolve in regard to it. She decided to present each friend—man or woman—on whom she wished to bestow a Christmas gift with a scrap-basket. Having thus easily settled the matter of Christmas presents, usually such a difficult one. she re- solved to still further simplity the matter by putting bows of the same color of ribbon on each and every one. Buying ribbon by the bolt, and giving up a day or two early in the season, her work was done betimes and a whole regiment of waste baskets, adorned with bows of old-rose ribbon, was marshaled in her 1, HUMAS DOWLING, Ayctioncer.
